오세은(Sae Eun Oh),이모권(Mo Kwon Lee),김동훈(Dong Hoon Kim) 大韓環境工學會 2009 대한환경공학회지 Vol.31 No.5

음식물쓰레기와 종이류로 구성된 유기성고형폐기물(고형물 함량 30% TS)을 대상으로 중온 건식혐기성소화를 시도하였고, 연속 운전 중 수리학적 체류 시간(HRT)을 150일, 100일, 60일, 40일로 감소시켰다. 기질의 고형물 농도를 30% TS (Total Solids)로 고정하였기 때문에 각각의 HRT에 해당하는 고형물 부하는 2.0, 3.0, 5.0, 7.5 kg TS/m3/d였다. HRT를 줄임에 따라 단위용적 당 바이오가스 생산 속도는 증가하였고, HRT 40일에서 3.49±0.31 m3/m3/d로 가장 높은 성능을 보였다. 이 때, 76%의 휘발성 고형물(VS) 분해율이 유지되었고, 0.25 m3/kg TS(added)의 메탄 생산 전환율을 보였으며, 이는 기질의 67.4%에 해당하는 에너지가 메탄 가스로 전환된 것을 의미한다. HRT 100일에서 0.52 m3/kg TS(added)로 가장 높은 바이오가스 전환율을 보였지만, 모든 HRT에서 0.45~0.52 m3/kg TS(added)로 큰 차이가 나지 않았다. 고형물 함량이 높은 기질의 원활한 주입을 위해 소화조 발효액의 일부를 기질 투입구로 반송하여 기질과 혼합 후 주입하였다. 주입하고자 하는 기질의 5배에 해당하는 양의 소화조 발효액를 반송하여 혼합하였을 때, 가장 효과적인 기질 주입이 이루어졌다. 중온 건식 조건에서 서식하는 메탄 소화균의 활성도를 측정한 결과, 아세트산, 뷰틸산, 프로피온산을 이용할 경우 각각 2.66, 1.94, 1.20 mL CH₄/g VS/d였다. Continuous dry anaerobic digestion of organic solid wastes (30% TS, Total Solids) comprised of food waste and paper was performed under mesophilic condition. During the operation, hydraulic retention time (HRT) was decreased as follows: 150 d, 100 d, 60 d, and 40 d, which corresponded to the solid loading rate of 2.0, 3.0, 5.0, and 7.5 kg TS/m3/d, respectively. Volumetric biogas production rate (m3/m3/d) increased as HRT decreased, and the highest biogas production rate of 3.49±0.31 m3/m3/d was achieved at 40 d of HRT. At this HRT, high volatile solids (VS) reduction of 76% was maintained, and methane production yield of 0.25 m3/kg TS(added) was achieved, indicating 67.4% conversion of organic solid waste to bioenergy. The highest biogas production yield of 0.52 m3/kg TS(added) was achieved at 100 d of HRT, but it did not change much with respect to HRT. For the ease feed pumping, some amount of digester sludge was recycled and mixed with fresh feed to decrease the solid content. Recirculation volume of 5Q was found to be the optimal in this experimental condition. Specific methanogenic activity (SMA) of microorganisms at mesophilic-dry condition was 2.66, 1.94, and 1.20 mL CH₄/g VS/d using acetate, butyrate, and propionate as a substrate, respectively.

점도, 임펠러 종류, 소비전력 등에 의해 영향을 받는 생물학적 폐기물 처리시설 및 에너지 생산 플랜트에서 적절한 교반 시스템의 설계는 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 적절한 교반 시스템의 설계를 위해 음식물류폐기물을 이용하여 다양한 조건(운전 pH 및 농도)에서의 수소발효 시 유변학적 특성의 변화를 조사한 후, 이를 기반으로 교반강도를 설계하였다. 운전 pH에 따른 수소발효 실험에서 수소전환율은 0.51~1.77 mol H 2 /mol hexose added 였고, 가장 높은 수소전환율은 운전 pH 5.5에서 나타났다. 발효액은 전단속도가 증가함에 따라 점도가 감소하는 Shear thinning 거동을 보였다. 탄수화물이 분해되면서 발효 이후 점도는 초기 점도보다 감소하는 경향을 보였으나, 운전 pH의 변화에 따른 발효액의 점도 변화는 크지 않았다. 탄수화물 농도 10~50 g Carbo. COD/L에서 수소전환율은 1.40~1.86 mol H 2 /mol hexose added 로 운전 pH 조건이 수소전환율에 미친 영향과 비교했을 때 큰 차이는 없었다. 발효액의 Zero viscosity와 Infinite viscosity는 탄수화물 농도에 따라 각각 10.4~346.2 mPa‧s와 1.7~5.3 mPa‧s로 나타났는데, 10 g Carbo. COD/L와 20 g Carbo. COD/L에서 발효액의 점도 값은 거의 차이가 없었다. 실험 결과에 기초하여 교반강도를 설계한 결과, 기질농도 30 g Carbo. COD/L의 수소발효 초기 및 발효 후 교반강도는 각각 26.0, 10.0 rpm으로 약 2.5배 정도의 교반강도를 줄임으로써 에너지를 절약할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. The design of proper agitation system is requisite in biological waste treatment and energy generation plant, which is affected by viscosity, impeller types, and power consumption. In the present work, hydrogen fermentation of food waste was conducted at various operational pHs (4.5~6.5) and substrate concentrations (10~50 g Carbo. COD/L), and the viscosity of fermented broth was analyzed. The H 2 yield significantly varied from 0.51 to 1.77 mol H 2 /mol hexose added depending on the pH value, where the highest performance was achieved at pH 5.5. The viscosity gradually dropped with shear rate increase, indicating a shear thinning property. With the disintegration of carbohydrate, the viscosity dropped after fermentation, but it did not change depending on the operational pH. At the same pH level, the H 2 yield was not affected much, ranging 1.40~1.86 mol H 2 /mol hexose added at 10~50 g Carbo. COD/L. The zero viscosity and infinite viscosity of fermented broth increased with substrate concentrations, from 10.4 to 346.2 mPa‧s, and from 1.7 to 5.3 mPa‧s, respectively. There was little difference in the viscosity value of fermented broth at 10 and 20 g Carbo. COD/L. As a result of designing the agitation intensity based on the experimental results, it is expected that the agitation intensity can be reduced during hydrogen fermentation. The initial and final agitation intensity of 30 g Carbo. COD/L in hydrogen fermentation were 26.0 and 10.0 rpm, respectively. As fermentation went on, the viscosity gradually decreased, indicating that the power consumption for agitation of food waste can be reduced.

The purpose of this study is to measure of growth and chlorophyl in barley exposed by X-ray. Barley seed was soaked 24h duration in water, then was classified into two group; pre-seed germination group (Pre-G) or post-seed germination group (Post-G). Also, divided as control subgroup and experimental subgroup(10Gy, 20Gy, 30Gy) in each group. Experimental subgroups were exposed by X-ray using linear accelerator (Clinac IS, VERIAN, USA). Expose condition was 6 MV X-ray, SSD 100 cm, 18×10 cm, 600 MU/min. Length was measured every day for 10 days and 10th day for weight. Chlorophyl was analyzed using spectrophotometer(uv-1800, shimadzu, japan) in l0th day. Data analysis was performed using SPSS ver 22.0(Chicago, IL, USA), ANOVA test (Dunnett_T3) between control subgroup and experimental subgroup in group and Independent T-test between Pre-G and Post-G in subgroup. In Pre-G, length of barley was significantly difference between control and 30Gy in 4th day (4.3 vs. 1.5, p= 0.011). Length of 30Gy was statistical difference with control(10th day; 14.4 vs. 6.3, p < 0.01), and was not in 10Gy or 20Gy in all day. In experimental subgroup, length was shorter as increasing radiation dose. In Post-G, length of barley was not difference statistically between control and experimental subgroup in first day, but more difference between two subgroup with increasing duration after exposing. Length of experimental subgroup was shorter significantly compared with control in 10th day, and no significant difference between experimental subgroup. Density of chlorophyl was increasing with increasing radiation dose in Pre-G and Post-G. Chlorophyl density of control was lower than 30Gy; 0.26ppm in Pre-G, 0.29ppm in Post-G). Growth and chlorophyl of barley was effected by X-ray. It is expected to be used as basic data for future radiobiological research.

신상룡(Sang Ryong Shin),이모권(Mo Kwon Lee),권오태(Oh Tae Kwon),김지훈(Ji Hoon Kim),한규현(Gyu Hyeon Han),김동훈(Dong Hoon Kim) 유기성자원학회 2017 유기물자원화 Vol.25 No.3

본 연구는 해조류 첨가를 통한 음식물쓰레기의 소화효율 증대효과를 알아보기 위해 다양한 농도(2.5∼10.0 g VS/L)와 혼합비율(FW:SW=100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, 0:100, VS 농도 기준)에서 회분식 실험을 수행하였다. 음식물쓰레기의 단일소화의 경우 농도가 증가함(2.5∼10.0 g VS/L)에 따라 메탄전환율이 394, 377, 276, 49mL CH4/g VSadded로 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 음식물쓰레기에 해조류의 첨가 비율이 높아질수록 낮은 기질농도(2.5∼5.0 g VS/L)에서는 메탄전환율이 감소하였으나(최대 15% 감소) 높은 기질농도(7.5∼10.0 g VS/L)에서는 메탄전환율이 증가하였다(최대 240% 상승). 또한 음식물쓰레기와 해조류의 단일소화 시 발생된 메탄가스의 양을 기반으로 상승효과에 의한 메탄발생량을 계산한 결과, 2.5, 5.0 g VS/L에서는 상승효과가 없었고, 7.5, 10.0 g VS/L의 경우에는 해조류의 비율이 높아질수록 상승효과가 최대 25 % (= 상승효과에 의한 메탄발생량/혼합소화 시 실제 발생한 메탄발생량, 기질농도 10.0 g VS/L, 혼합비율 50:50)까지 상승하였다. 음식물쓰레기의 농도가 10.0 g VS/L로 높은 경우 단일소화 시(FW=SW=100:0) 유기산 축적량이 7,426 mg COD/L까지 증가하였고, 해조류를 첨가하면(FW:SW=50:50) 유기산 축적량이 2,346 mg COD/L로 감소하였다. 이는 비교적 생분해도가 낮은 해조류를 첨가함으로서 유기산 생산속도의 조절을 통해 유기산이 축적되는 것을 억제하여 상승효과가 발생한 것으로 판단된다. In this study, we investigated the effect of seaweed (SW) addition on the anaerobic digestion of food waste (FW). Anaerobic batch experiments were carried out at various substrate concentrations (2.5 to 10.0 g VS/L) and mixing ratios (FW:SW=100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 and 0:100 on VS basis) of FW and SW. The methane yield of FW alone was 394, 377, 276, 49 mL CH4/g VSadded at each substrate concentration (2.5 to 10.0 g VS/L). In cases of co-digestion, methane yield decreased (up to 15 %) with increasing mixing ratio of SW at low substrate concentration (2.5 to 5.0 g VS/L), while it increased (up to 240 %) at high substrate concentration (7.5 to 10.0 g VS/L). The synergistic effect was calculated based on the amount of methane generated from the single-feedstock digestion of FW and SW. The synergistic effect was not found at 2.5 and 5.0 g VS/L. However, the synergistic effect increased (up to 25% = synergistic increment/total methane production at 10.0 g VS/L, FW:SW=50:50) with increasing the ratio of seaweed at 7.5 and 10.0 g VS/L. At 10.0 g VS/L of FW alone, the accumulated amount of organic acids was 7,426 mg COD/L, which was decreased to 2,346 mg COD/L by seaweed (FW:SW=50:50) addition. The reason for the synergistic effect was to control the production rate of the organic acids by adding SW that has a relatively lower biodegradability compared to FW.

본 연구에서는 하수슬러지의 유기산 생산에 있어 해조류 첨가를 통한 상승효과를 확인하고자 새로운 접근을 시도하였다. 기질농도를 동일하게 20 g COD/L로 하고 하수슬러지와 해조류의 혼합비율을 COD 기준, 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, 0:100으로 조절하여 실험하였다. 실험 온도는 35℃, 중온에서 이루어졌고 메탄생산균의 활성을 억제하기 위해서 90℃, 20분간 열처리된 혐기성소화슬러지를 식종균으로 이용하였다. 실험결과를 살펴보면, 해조류의 첨가량이 증가할수록 유기산의 농도도 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으며 혼합비율별 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, 0:100 (하수슬러지:해조류) 유기산 생산량은 각각 1.45, 3.22, 4.28, 5.24, 4.82g COD/L이었다. 하수슬러지와 해조류만의 유기산 생산량을 기반으로 하여 상승효과를 계산한 결과, 혼합비율 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 에서 각각 0.92, 1.14, 1.26 g COD/L로 나타났다. 이는 해조류가 25% 비율로 첨가 시 전체 생산된 유기산의 40%가 상승효과에 의해 생산되었음을 의미하며, 해조류의 상대적인 높은 C/N비와 생분해도에 기인한다. In the present work, the synergistic effect of seaweed addition on organic acid production from sludge was investigated. The batch experiment was conducted at various mixing ratios of sewage sludge and seaweed (100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, 0:100 on a COD basis) under the substrate concentration of 20 g COD/L. The fermentation temperature was conducted under mesophilic condition (35℃) and a heat-treated (90℃ for 20 min) anaerobic digester sludge was used as a seeding source to suppress the methanogenic activity, The results showed that the amount of organic acid production increased as the content of seaweed increased: organic acids were 1.45, 3.22, 4.28, 5.24 and 4.82 g COD/L for the mixing ratio of 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 and 0:100 respectively. The synergistic effect was calculated based on the organic acid production of individual sludge and seaweed, and was found to be 0.92, 1.14, 1.26 g COD/L at the mixing ratio of 75:25, 50:50 and 25:75, which indicates that 40% of synergy was obtained when 25% of seaweed was added. The synergistic effect could be ascribed to the high C/N ratio and biodegradability of seaweed.
